It's good that there are more free hosts all the time... though I've had too many that force adverts upon you after a while. I currently use Tried and True Webhost, which offers from 500MB/5GB transfer to 1.8GB/30GB transfer (dependent upon postcount)... though you must make 3 posts per week or your account is suspended.

I don't know what it is but Spooted looks a bit amateur and I've had too many sites like that build up with hype and then disappear a few weeks/months later. If you can actually get a free .com address then it might be worth a try... I really hope it works and stays up.

3. Payments.

(a) Fees (if applicable)

Fees are payable in advance on the first day of each billing cycle. Customer?s billing cycle shall a calendar month or twelve calendar months, as indicated on the Order. The first service fee shall include a prorated portion of the monthly fee for the first partial month of service plus the fee for the first full billing cycle. Spooted.com may require payment in full of the first fee before beginning service. If the Order provides for credit/debit card billing, Customer authorizes Spooted.com to bill subsequent fees to the credit/debit card on or after the first day of each billing cycle during the Term of this Agreement; otherwise Spooted.com will invoice Customer via electronic mail to the Primary Customer Contact listed on the Order. Invoiced fees may be issued on or before the 1st day of each billing cycle, and the fees shall be due on the 14th day following invoice date, but in no event earlier than the first day of each billing cycle.

Payments must be made in United States dollars. Customer is responsible for providing Spooted.com with changes to billing information (such as credit card expiration, change in billing address) At its option, Spooted.com may accrue charges to be made to a credit/debit card until such charges exceed $10.00. Spooted.com may charge interest on overdue amounts at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum non-usurious rate under applicable law. Spooted.com may suspend the service without notice if payment for the service is overdue. Fees not disputed within sixty (60) days of due date are conclusively deemed accurate. Customer agrees to pay Spooted.com?s reasonable reinstatement fee following a suspension of service for non-payment, and to pay Spooted.com?s reasonable costs of collection of overdue amounts, including collection agency fees, attorney fees and court costs.

(b) Fee Increases. Spooted.com may increase its fees for services effective the first day of a Renewal Term by giving notice to Customer of the new fees at least forty five (45) days prior to the beginning of the Renewal Term, and if Customer does not give a notice of non-renewal as provided in Section 2 above, the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the new fee for that Renewal Term and any subsequent Renewal Terms (unless the fees are increased in the same manner for a subsequent Renewal Term).

© Early Termination. Customer acknowledges that the amount of the fee for the service is based on Customer?s agreement to pay the fee for the entire Initial Term, or Renewal Term, as applicable. In the event Spooted.com terminates the Agreement for Customer?s breach of the Agreement in accordance with Section 9 (Termination), or Customer terminates the service other than in accordance with Section 9 (Termination) for Spooted.com?s breach, the unpaid fees for each billing cycle remaining in the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable, are due on the business day following termination of the Agreement

I tried signing up but got:

Unfortunately we cannot activate your account due to the following reason -

- You have not signed up from one of the accepted countries

- You do not own the domain name

- Your URL is not friendly

1) I live in the UK. So their "We know your country" script/whatever is wrong.

2) It is a subdomain, I don't need to own it do I?

3) Not friendly? What does this mean? I didn't use somthing like "imgoingtobangyourmum.spooted.org"

No they could not and legally you would have to consent to it. When they say rules and packages they don't mean anything about paying unless you give them sort of payment information. Also, you have to read the fine print, they could legally charge you a $1,000 for it as long as it is in writing inside of their rules but of course they would need your payment info first but I would not worry at all about them charging you but I would stay away from them if anyone is thinking about signing up.

Bummer, well at least I didn't loose anything that important. Hostingzero has always been good to me. One google ad and they even launched their own registry service. "If" Spooted doesn't come back online which I hope they do, at least they tried.

Doesn't it seem weird that they got many people to sign up, and then they seemed to have gotten the heck out of Dodge?

I don't think they left. The .com version may have become a white and black text page, but it spawned Spooted.org. Spooted.org is offering the same (almost) options, but with ads. If it's the same group, why didn't they reuse their .com? Oh well, one google ad still is fine with me on my old host. If anybody is looking for a place: HostingZero
